Outcomes

Primary Outcomes

To identify the number of mutations or genes involved in genetic causes of Child obesity

Time Frame: first day of enrollement

Children with obesity and their parents will be recruited to establish genetic causes of obesity. This will allow perform genetic analysis using new approaches for the identification of involved mutations or new candidate genes

Secondary Outcomes

To determine number of phenotypes associated to the child obesity genotype(first day of enrollement)
To identify the number of new mutations present in the children's DNA and absent from their parents' genomes(first day of enrollement)
To identify the number of mutations in the population(first day of enrollement)
